We are excited to announce a new version of Migrator for Notes to Exchange 4.15.2 is now available for download.

Look what's new:

Support for modern authentication

MNE includes the Self-Service Desktop Migrator (SSDM) end-user migration tool. SSDM can be helpful in situations where end-users have large archives on their workstation, or use encrypted mail. The SSDM now supports modern authentication. You can configure the SSDM to use Azure Active Directory Authentication libraries when connecting to Office 365 by enabling the Exchange Server setting Use Modern Authentication for SSDM. For more information on modern authentication, see this Microsoft page. New INI parameters have been added to support modern authentication. The following parameters have been added for the administration components:

MNE performs MAPI reconnects when an error from the MAPIErrorsToRetry list is encountered while storing migrated items to the Exchange mailbox. The maximum number of reconnect attempts is configured with the new parameter [Exchange] MaxSessionReconnectCount, which has a default value of 20.

Setting passwords is a feature of MNE that attempts to set AD passwords for newly created users during provisioning and provides them in the 'migration notification message' during migration. Starting with 14.5.1 Hotfix 9, MNE includes the following new set password feature.

MNE now generates a random password, which complies with the AD Global Password Policy, and applies it to a newly created AD user object. There are four options that help to specify the related attributes of newly created AD user object during provisioning:

User must change password at next logon

User cannot change password

Password never expires

Account is disabled

If the target Exchange Server is On-Premises Exchange, a password is set during provisioning. AD account and password information is provided in a notification message through the template file ada_template.html.

If the target Exchange Server is Office 365 with Use Azure Active Directory Synchronization, then the password is already set during provisioning. The GUI option Reset user passwords on the Select Office 365 Administrative Operations wizard page is disabled during migration. AD account and password information is provided in a notification message through the template file ada_template.html.

A new option has been added to the [Exchange] RemigrateMode parameter. When set to 2, ittells the program that if the source item in Notes was modified after a previous migration, delete theExchange copy of the item and then remigrate it from Notes. If the source item in Notes has notbeen modified, leave the previously migrated copy in Exchange.
